My life sucks, ups and downs.. I want to talk to someone without feeling judged for the mistakes i made. without feeling pushed to do something i dont want... please.
Dont think im blowing you off, I do wanna talk. This post wasnt at all about you or anyone on here, this was about my friends,or the pastor at the church, I havent gone in about 2 months and he keeps bugging me to get baptized..... its really annoying... among other things.
I didn't think it was about me, actually. And I think you are blowing me off because you're scared that things are going to get worse than they are. A fair fear, considering, but unfounded. I've spoken my peace, the past is that. Comically, I was never bugged to get baptized.. I guess they saw my fall from 'grace' coming, lol!
I don't know what the other The comments say cuz the lj app is being a jerk and gives me the error "Livejournal has stopped working" whenever I try to read comments.
I do have this to say - why don't you post on here? I do it all the time, it helps me organize my thoughts and if people offer advice (solicited or not), it gives me time to think about what they said and pull from it what I can even if, maybe especially if, it pisses me off. But at least I've been able to get it off my chest.
I can't speak for everyone on lj, but I can say that I will never purposefully judge a person for the decisions they make If it is something they have to do for themselves and to maintain their wellbeing.
I find lj to be a much safer environment than Facebook for that type of thing.
I dunno, just my $0.02. (Since we no longer deal with pennies does that even make sense anymore?) I how things improve for you though.
I have come to despise infant baptism. There is no biblical justification for making this commitment on behalf of someone too young to give consent, and forcing someone to consent to something is called duress. I must apologize to Amanda for letting this happen to her. Tell your pastor and anyone else who tries to force you into something for which you do not feel ready to back the hell off. Feel free to quote me on this. A contract to which you do not freely consent is null and void, making you a false participant, and thus a false member of your church.
